Best Stand Up Comedians of All Time

[broncosmitty]

Not sure about that though... He does arnold-but then again everyone does arnold... But his voices are generic impressions... for example he will do a flamingo dancer instead of a specific person... i still consider that impressions... But still i am not a fan of his standup... I like him as an actor, but his standup is just too much for me...

Williams always cracks me up when he's a guest on talk shows. I have no idea what he's talking about sentence to sentence though. I can see what you're sayin on the impressions. I just connect impressions with sketch comedy or Frank Caliendo in general.

I just watched six minutes of Neil Hamburger, wasn't the greatest thing I ever seen but it wasn't terrible either... I probably need to watch more...

Did you get one with the crowd booing?? The more they boo the better he is!!!

No, it was where he had to do what was on the tv behind him... probably not a good example of his stuff...

Sean Rouse is funny. I was introduced to him on the Dave Attell "Insomniac Tour." He has rheumatoid arthritis, which freaks me out because of his hands but he even makes fun of it himself. Dude is funny.

No offense but I didn't even fake smile during that...

how about Comedy duos?? Mel brooks and rob reiner?? the Sklar brothers??- I am a fan of both... clearly Brooks and reiner are the best duo team of all time, not sure if that is debateable...

I am just going to say that it is a tie between George carlin and Richard Pryor. I did think Richard Pryor was better at shutting up the hecklers!

best verbal beat down of a heckler ever.

I don't know who this Dunham guy is you guys are tallinbough. Bernie Mac had good stuff. He'll kick a kids ass. Hahahaha. George Wallace used to be really funny. Saw him on something awhile back, I didn't laugh.

Yep Bernie Mac was the man.

I like a lot of the ones listed and some of the ones mentioned in the posts, but I'm an ol country boy so my vote would be for Jerry Clowers.
